Before giving to anyone this week — try this: pause. One breath. One question — is there enough in me to pour from right now? If yes — give. If no — fill it first. Even five minutes counts. For me, it's dancing. What's yours? 👇 Drop it below.

Hi everyone — for those who are new here, I'm Taline. I'm a somatic movement facilitator, dance movement therapist in training, and DJ based in Sydney. This community is where I bring it all together: dance, healing, and celebration. I wanted to share what's coming up this season — because there's a lot, and I think there's something here for you. These last few weeks running Anchor in the Storm have been really powerful. "I haven't felt my heart for a while like that. It was so good to feel it again. " Witnessing real AHA moments has reminded me exactly why this work matters.

Maybe you've heard the word "somatics" and wondered what it actually means. Maybe you're curious but not sure if it's for you. Here's what I can tell you: it's not what you expect. And it's more powerful than you'd imagine. I've been studying somatic movement and dance movement therapy for three years, and what I offer isn't a set of exercises — it's a whole journey. We check in with the body, move through breathwork and visualisation, warm up with intentional somatic movement, explore a theme through guided and free movement, and close with integration — sometimes through journalling or drawing, sometimes just stillness. When you let the body lead, it reveals things the mind has been trying to figure out for years. I've built a 6-week series around this — Anchor in the Storm: Somatic Movement for Collective Overwhelm — beginning Wednesday 15 July, 7:30pm AEST. Weekly sessions of 60–75 minutes, online. But first — come try it free. Wednesday 8 July · 7:30pm AEST · Online · Free Register here → https://taline.au/events

What happens in a session? here's a little breakdown Sessions include visualisation, breathwork, somatic movement practices to warm up the body, exploration of a theme with reflective prompts and music, and drawing or journalling to integrate the experience. An example of exploring a theme of boundaries for instance, could look like embodying what it’s like to open to something you enjoy and closing/saying no to something you don’t want. I prompt you with music and reflective questions and you let your body reveal what it means/feels/looks like to you. Movement is body-led. It’s different for everyone. Hugely profound and transformational. All movement big or small is welcomed. This is a safe space. No experience needed. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DYinFnJBFC1/?igsh=MXcwb2RvY3J2Nm9u
